Swallowing-Related Time Measured by a Neck-Worn Electronic Stethoscope and Its Associations With Age, Sex, and Masticatory Function in Community-Dwelling Older Adults. [PDF]
Geriatr Gerontol IntIn community‐dwelling older adults, PCT during water swallowing was longer in men, whereas OPST during solid food ingestion was longer in women. OPST was associated with age in both sexes and with masticatory function in men. ABSTRACT Introduction Objective assessment of swallowing function in community‐dwelling older adults remains challenging. A neck‐
